Map: Hurricane Irma Deaths

By Catie Peterson

Hurricane Irma is responsible for at least 68 deaths across the Caribbean and the United States. Florida has seen the most storm-related deaths, at at least 27, including eight elderly patients who died in a Hollywood nursing home earlier this week.

Others have died in storm-related traffic accidents, fallen from ladders, or been poisoned by generators running inside homes. Still others have drowned, been electrocuted, crushed by tree limbs and crumbling buildings, or suffered fatal injuries while cleaning up debris.
